Syrian Army advances in Khan Al-Sheh, Western Ghouta

The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) was able to make a noticeable advance in the rebel stronghold of Khan Al-Sheh in Western Ghouta.

Units from the elite 4th Mechanized Division managed to infiltrate the town from the northern sector seizing Masjid Al-Azim district of the town along with several building blocks from the direction of Drushah and Tahtouh Buildings after hours of intense clashes with primarily Jabhat Fath Al-Sham terrorists.

The military command of the Syrian Armed Forces seeks to expel the insurgent presence in the sensitive region of Western Ghouta to improve logistical operation capabilities of the government troops in southern Syria and enhance security in the capital’s backyard.
